Pilot pens...

Just received a Pilot Silvern with extremely nice fine nib. Got it from a Japanese online retailer at 30% off RRP







Next are a couple of goodies I bought in Japan.
Limited edition Iroshizuku ink and the Pilot Custom Heritage 92.





I'm very lucky that those Maki-e pens don't excite me, otherwise I'll be broke...

Great pens Kai It's so strange, I was just looking at those two pens today. I didn't get a chance to try them as the boss finished her shopping early

Thanks guys. One thing I like Japan is that the shopping experience (both online and in-person) is second to none. Even though it is expensive to shop there, the way the sales people treat customers is excellent.
